The dying is all fun and games for Republicans until their data tells them that now is not a good time for another pandemic shut down.
We had the flu of 1918 then covid 19. It will not take 100 years for the next big one. The medical industrial complex has not recovered from covid yet and people panicked voted Biden.
Yes, Republicans don’t want another problem to fuck up their propaganda.
If you want to organize an illegal general strike where last time the US government just started killing people on the strike line… Go right ahead.
Just another warning for what Republicans are going to say about the midterms. What was it last time? Fake votes because there were bamboo fibers in the paper?
Republicans made Congress a distraction. Democrats let it happen.
Once people figure out politics is just business then the perspective changes. It’s just that people like distractions more than paying attention. See Fox News Propaganda for a great example of both.
The circus part of bread and circuses.
Republicans aren’t walking back anything. They are losing the ability to keep Trump on script.
It’s easy to understand. It’s hard to get people caught up on 50 odd years of not paying attention.
Spread the word. The only downside to a strike is not enough people striking.
And that when USA during WWII rounded up all the Americans of Japanese descent to put them in prison they still were forced to work.
It’s always been a house of cards and now Republicans have the control to burn it all down. We’re only one year into the Great Republican Fire Sale and Republicans are not going to stop themselves.
History got Trump as President. Twice. History has led to Republicans getting full control of USA.
If people had not been historically discouraged we would not be here yet again talking about Trump.
Some Chinese analysts argued that China’s refusal to budge in the face of U.S. pressure commanded a certain geopolitical deference.
America’s allies need to “diversify the risk of their dependence on the United States,” said Wang Yiwei, a professor of international relations at Renmin University in Beijing. “Naturally, they chose China.”
“China’s might has won respect,” he said. “China’s stance has won respect.”
Beijing has been quick to capitalize on this opening. Mr. Trump’s aggressive maneuvers — like tariffs and military strikes in Venezuela, the Middle East and Africa — have allowed Beijing to cast itself, however improbably, as a defender of the rules-based order, the global trading system and a leader of the Global South.
It’s not a promise. It’s Republicans threatening people who they are supposed to be helping.
At the time, Trump said that agreement was what Carney “should be doing and it’s a good thing for him to sign a trade deal with China."
Someone got around to telling Trump this isn’t just about EVs.

They call Trump “Comrade Nation Builder” and I think it’s the best nickname yet.
Yup. The first time around he was told repeatedly by many people he can’t use a nuke. After awhile they let him use a MOAB. The largest non-nuke.
Better hope Trump never finds out what happens when a nuke is used in the upper atmosphere. That was Starfish Prime.
Republicans are.
